Last week, several outlets (including The Daily Wire) reported that Democrats in Minnesota are considering recruiting a primary challenger to Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), even though she’s only been in office three months. This week, CNN added to the rumor mill, reporting that Omar’s constituents — even those who share her background and her faith — are uneasy with Omar’s rhetoric and may be open to considering other options.
The Hill kicked off reports last week that Minnesota Democrats were seeking a primary challenger for Omar, particularly local Jewish Democrats who have been shocked and offended by Omar’s blatantly anti-Semitic comments since assuming office, accusing her colleagues and others of having “dual loyalty” to both the United States and Israel — an anti-Semitic smear — and accusing American politicians of getting rich taking money from pro-Israel lobbying group, AIPAC.
